Even though the answers to those two questions were not that interesting, it's still nice to know.

Sometimes I'm too close to the subject to get that. The magic isn't spoiled I just occasionally take things for granted.

I had an idea for a 50th Anniversary show at the Saloon...

It could be that Dusty Chaps and Miss Tilly are getting married, so that gives a good excuse to bring in all the past and present characters together under one roof--Choctaw Charlie, Carrie Nation, etc. And then Mean Murphy can interrupt the nuptials.

It was just a quick idea that popped into my head the other day. It stuck with me so much that I even sketched out a couple ideas for Miss Tilly's wedding outfit (I've gotta get them scanned, then I'll post 'em).

That'd be really cool. SDC should really think of doing some of these things. It'd make for a great season.

Love the saloon show idea.

It is really hard for me to have clear memories of SDC, it seems like all of them are blurred by my age perspective, so I think that I would love a book that really talks about the changes in things around there.  Like why we focus more on the big things than the little things?  It was the highlight of a trip when I got to talk to the sheriff and get a badge from him (not from a store, from the sheriff).  Anyway, most of my memories of the park are little snippets and moments.

Wouldn't that be a bit like jumping the shark?
